25 Degrees Discontinued Menu Items

Several once popular 25 Degrees Singapore items are no longer on the menu, led by the Cheesy Mac Attack and the chicken and mac and cheese waffles. This 25 degrees discontinued menu items guide lists the discontinued and limited time items from the published 25 Degrees menu record, what they cost when they ran, and what to order instead now.

Which 25 Degrees items have been discontinued?

Think of this list in two groups: limited specials that ended on schedule, and old prices and deals that were replaced. Limited specials are the clearest discontinued items, since guides give them end dates. Old prices are a softer group: the dish may still exist, but the price you remember is gone, and that’s just as important when you’re budgeting a visit.

What happened to the Cheesy Mac Attack?

The Cheesy Mac Attack was a Singapore exclusive limited burger, first noted as a Bangkok success before it came to Singapore. It swapped normal buns for buns made from breaded mac and cheese, crisp outside and gooey inside, with a beef patty, bacon, caramelised onions, arugula, Swiss cheese and nacho cheese sauce between them. Tatler Asia reported it as back for a limited period until 31 August in its run, while an earlier launch notice gave October to November dates, which shows it returned at least twice in different runs.

It ended because it was designed to end. Limited burgers create a reason to visit now rather than later, and the mac and cheese buns are far more labour heavy than a standard brioche bun. That’s why it keeps appearing in best of lists and in reader questions long after it left: it was memorable, messy, and deliberately scarce.

The Cheesy Mac Attack

Closest order now: a Number One or a build your own beef burger with extra cheese, caramelised onions and bacon, plus a side of mac and cheese style loaded fries if the kitchen will build it. It won’t taste the same, since the mac and cheese buns were the whole point, but it gets you the same rich, cheesy, bacon and onion flavour stack.

What happened to the chicken and waffles special?

The chicken and macaroni and cheese waffles special baked mac and cheese inside the waffle itself, then topped it with tender fried chicken, a sunny side egg, jalapeno heat and maple syrup sweetness. An Expat Choice review priced it at S$18 and noted the run ended on 28 February, urging readers not to miss it before it disappeared. Charred broccoli with garlic aioli and a chocolate malted shake at S$12 were noted in the same review as new additions of that period, which shows how often this menu refreshes around its specials.

Like the Cheesy Mac Attack, this was a seasonal special, not a permanent cut after poor sales. The review is warm about it, which makes its ending a calendar ending, not a quality ending. If it returns, that’s likely to be as a new limited run with a new end date, not as a permanent menu item.

Can any discontinued item come back?

Yes, and it’s already come back at least once, returning after its first run. Limited items return when a kitchen wants a proven crowd puller for a festival or a slow season, and Singapore Food Festival timing was noted for one Cheesy Mac Attack return. Your best move is to watch for a new Number Five announcement or a festival period, and to ask in store whether a past special is planned to return.
